Can not activate layout cache

[FANER]

I can not activate layout cache. the checkbox is gray and not clickable.
any idea?

If the Layout Cache checkbox is greyed out, it usually means something on your setup is forcing it to stay disabled.

From the note in your screenshot, the most common reasons are:

• You have WooCommerce, Polylang, or WPML active
• “Disable Ajax” is enabled
• Or something in your setup conflicts with how Lay handles navigation/caching

I’d check these first:

• Go to Lay Options → make sure “Disable Ajax” is OFF
• Temporarily disable plugins like WooCommerce or multilingual plugins and see if it becomes clickable
• Clear any cache plugin you’re using (or disable it for testing)

Lay automatically disables Layout Cache when it detects incompatibilities, so the grey checkbox is basically a “blocked by config” signal.

Try isolating it by disabling plugins one by one, you’ll usually find the cause pretty quickly 👍

hej, thanks for the response – it must be polylang then.
in future i might switch to qTranslate-XT but now keep using WP Fastest Cache (or do you see any issues?

wp fastest cache should probably be fine too
